Folder Permissions
 

NTFS folder permissions and access reports

NTFS permissions determine who has access to what files and folders in an organization. For efficient folder management, it is important to regularly monitor NTFS permissions and specify the level of inheritance. However, performing these tasks using native tools like PowerShell scripts can prove to be a cumbersome process.

On the other hand, with ADManager Plus' Permissions for Folders report, administrators can check, analyze, and manage Windows folder and file permissions and network-attached storage (NAS) file servers while executing the appropriate measures to enhance NTFS folder security. The generated reports can be scheduled to be delivered at a specified time and can be exported in CSV, HTML, PDF, CSVDE, and XLSX file formats.
